LOTTO Jackpot Rises to $947,000 Ahead of Saturday Draw

Little rock, Ark.

Saturday night’s LOTTO jackpot rises to $947,000.

LOTTO, an Arkansas-exclusive draw game, was designed to give in-state lottery players more chances to win bigger prizes. Since its launch in 2022, the game has seen five jackpot winners, most recently a Garland County resident who won in October 2025. Additionally, two players have landed $25,000 second-tier prizes since January 2026.

LOTTO drawings are held every Wednesday and Saturday at 9 p.m. Tickets cost $2 per play, and ticket sales cut off at 8:59 pm. on draw nights.

To win the jackpot, a LOTTO player must match the first six numbers drawn in any order. Other prizes are available for those who match at least three winning numbers, with or without the Bonus Number. Players who match five of the six winning numbers and the Bonus Number will receive a $25,000 prize.

Once won, the jackpot resets to $250,000 and increases with each subsequent drawing.

The winner has 180 days from the draw date to claim the prize.
